3DM-GX5-IMU
High Performance Inertial Measurement Unit (IMU)
The MicroStrain by HBK 3DM-GX5-IMU is the smallest and lightest industrial IMU available. It features a fully calibrated and temperature compensated triaxial accelerometer and gyroscope to achieve the optimum combination of measurement qualities under all dynamic conditions.
Description
The MicroStrain by HBK 3DM-GX5 family of high-performance, industrial-grade inertial sensors provides a wide range of triaxial inertial measurements and computed attitude and navigation solutions. In all models, the Inertial Measurement Unit (IMU) includes direct measurement of acceleration and angular rate, and is fully temperature-compensated and calibrated over the operating temperature. The use of Micro- Electro- Mechanical System (MEMS) technology allows for highly accurate, small, lightweight devices. SensorConnect software can be used for device configuration, live data monitoring, and recording. Alternatively, the MIP Data Communications Protocol is available for the development of custom interfaces and easy OEM integration.
